An eclectic collection of trivia, observation, cynicism, wit....
and the occasional rant.
Enjoy!

I'm Mark. Older than you imagine, pescetarian, husband, father, professional parent & pedant.

I post some original stuff and a bunch of other things that I like. If you own the rights to something you see here and you're not happy about me sharing it, let me know.

On pug sitting...

  • Me:  Hello? Is that the Holiday Homes for Pets Pie Company?
  • Me:  Oh good, glad there's someone there on a Sunday. Do you take exotic strays?
  • Me:  What sort? Well we found it in our pond. It looks a bit like a cross between a Swamp Monster and a Pug.
  • Me:  How do we know it's a stray? No one in their right mind would keep something like that. Anyway, there's no one here to look after it.
  • Me:  Do you do collections? How soon can you be here?

Chillin’. Sittin’ like a person. Mouse is dead in the background and Sybil just discovered she likes carrots.

I’m not sure which is more ridiculous; Sybil sitting like that, or me being caught holding her…
